SDc4000 Crown on the drive to work


This photo and the one below of my SD4000 was taken on my drive to work. The sun hit the crystal at the correct angle and the etched Rolex crown became very apparent. These photos were taken with iOS app Hydra on an iPhone 6+. Hydra takes 50 to 60 images per shot, then combines them together for incredibly hi-res photos. In the top photo, you can see the second hand blur as the shot requires about 15 seconds to shoot.


I have high res versions posted here (bottom of the page).

Great picture. Thanks.

I never could find this etched crown on my new SubC. Good I bought it from an AD so no question of authenticity.

I will try looking for it again while driving.
